Does not support iPhone X, UI is pretty rough

The UI does not support iPhone X, the top menus weirdly overlap the notch and not easy to tap.

The UI in the app is pretty rough - circa 1990 music UI. A few improvements I’d like to see:•iPhone volume buttons control Linn volume•integration with now playing (to allow volume adjust and next track from lock screen and Apple Watch)•Allow add to playlist from the currently playing track (super hard to create playlists while listening otherwise)•Remove duplicate entries in Album view for albums with multiple artists•Local caching of items to quickly display album art and lists of albums•A lighter theme that doesn’t feel depressing (think Apple Music)•Better designed controls for play/next etc. they look like a child drew them•Ability to have a default music server and remove other services not used from sidebar•Show album view or playlist view right away instead of an instruction to drop down the menu

Happy to share more if the developers want to reach out to me.

Nicely Integrated

This app does everything although it does take a little bit of effort to set up. But, now that mine is, it's amazing!

Support roon!

This works but Roon is much better. Support roon so you can focus on the hardware as the control software is not as good in comparison.
